Geffen, a music and film mogul with a net worth that Forbes estimates at $6.2 billion, reportedly tried to buy at least a controlling stake in the Clippers in 2010 but was rebuffed by Sterling.

Ellison, the CEO of Oracle, a business software and technology company, has attempted to purchase several sports teams in recent years, ESPN reports.
